Originally picked up this book because I wanted to read the spin off series Once Upon A Broken Heart. I had heard so many great things, so I wanted to check this one out too. This book had me gasping and wanting to flip to the end of the book almost every chapter. I honestly wasn’t sure what was real and what wasn’t! Enjoyed it so much and can’t wait to pick up the next one! Wish there was a bit more spice, but I believe it’s YA, so I can see why it didn’t. Definitely captured my attention!

Todavía estoy procesando lo que leí
Sin duda fue una historia que me mantuvo atrapada todo el tiempo. Si, fue predecible en varias partes, pero también fue interesante que te hacían dudar en todo momento de tus sospechas.
No empatice en un 100% con los protagonistas. Todos tienen algo odioso que me molestaba leer. En un comienzo lo comprometida con la causa de Scar me gustó pero llegó un momento que ella como que mandó todo a la mierda y fue puro lloriqueo.
En fin fue bueno, me entretuvo bastante.

I really enjoyed this book, as it gave me the Alice in Wonderland vibes I love. Unfortunately most of the characters annoyed me, but the strange twists kept me reading to the last. I love the idea of strange and wonderful mysterious new worlds and I wish Scarlett had spent more time experiencing the magic of Caraval than worrying. Hopefully the next books explore more.
